(A) A representative time-series of current amplitude at +100 mV and −100 mV. (B) I–V curve before (baseline) and after TRPM3 stimulation through PregS application. (C) I–V curve on PregS stimulation and after TRPM3 inhibition with ononetin in the presence of PregS. (D–F) Current obtained on an NK cell from a long COVID participant. (D) A representative time-series of current amplitude at +100 mV and −100 mV. (E) I–V curve before (baseline) and after TRPM3 stimulation through PregS application. (F) I–V curve on PregS stimulation and after TRPM3 inhibition with ononetin in the presence of PregS. (G–I) - Current obtained on an NK cell from a long COVID participant on treatment with LDN. (G) A representative time-series of current amplitude at +100 mV and −100 mV. (H) I–V curve before (baseline) and after TRPM3 stimulation through PregS application. (I) I–V curve on PregS stimulation and after TRPM3 inhibition with ononetin in the presence of PregS. Dash lines in (A,D,G) illustrate each trend of the baseline and PregS effects. Abbreviations: HC, healthy control; LC, long COVID; LDN, low-dose naltrexone; NK, natural killer; PregS, pregnenolone sulfate.

TRPM3 ion channel function comparison among long COVID, HC and long COVID taking LDN groups. (A) Bar graph showing TRPM3 current amplitude at +100 mV after TRPM3 stimulation through PregS application in long COVID (N = 9; n = 61), HC (N = 9; n = 65) and long COVID taking LDN (N = 9; n = 63). (B) Bar graphs illustrating TRPM3 inhibition with ononetin in the presence of PregS in long COVID (N = 9; n = 52), HC (N = 9; n = 53) and long COVID taking LDN (N = 9; n = 53). (C) Bar graphs representing the percentage of NK cells sensitive and insensitive to ononetin inhibition in the presence of PregS. (D–F) Scatter plots showing change of each current recording in NK cells from long COVID, HC and long COVID taking LDN groups, respectively; first point was measured at the end of TRPM3 stimulation through PregS application, and the second point shows the effect in current amplitude after TRPM3 inhibition with ononetin in the presence of PregS. Each red line represented a cell sensitive to ononetin as a reduction in amplitude was recorded. N = participants and n = number of records. Data presented as mean ± SEM and determined by Kruskal–Wallis (Dunn’s multiple comparisons, (A,B) in amplitude analysis and Fisher’s exact test (Bonferroni method, C) regarding ononetin response. Abbreviations: HC, healthy control; LC, long COVID; LDN, low-dose naltrexone; N, number of participants; n, number of records analyzed; NK, natural killer; PregS, pregnenolone sulfate.
